Description

Absorbent protector for urine leaks in the  male.

Object of the invention

This Utility Model, as expressed the statement, aims at a protector of the type that is used for the absorption of slight urine losses destined specifically to the male, who contributes to the function to which it is intended a series of advantages and features that will be recorded more ahead.

More specifically, the invention consists of a absorbent protector that adapts to the specific anatomy of the men, thanks to its shape, allowing adaptation to the area perineal keeping the testicles isolated from moisture.

Field of the Invention

The scope of the invention is found within the industry dedicated to the manufacture of absorbents for urine losses.

Background of the invention

Prostate problems in Spain affect 30% of the population over 55 years. These problems, which cover from benign prostatic hypertrophy to carcinoma prostate, in more than 50% of cases, with leaks involuntary urination

The treatment of these pathologies is pharmacological and surgical, but treatment is often necessary combined with protectors, which absorb involuntary losses of urine suffered by the patient and allowed to perform their activities normally and without limitations.

In the current state of the art, you must mention that there are many different types of absorbents for slight losses of urine of different sizes and sizes composition, but designed in most cases thinking of the woman, so that all the part of the product that goes from the perineum back is rendered useless in the case of its use for the male

Even existing models of protectors absorbents designed for slight losses of urine in the male, not they isolate the testicles from the urine, running the risk of maceration of the skin.

Explanation of the invention.

In order to remedy the inconveniences previously mentioned, with the present invention it has been devised an absorbent protector for slight urine losses whose design innovative simply provides adequate protection adapted to the specific characteristics of the anatomy of the male.

In this way, the absorbent protector object of the invention allows the patient to urinate on a kind of absorbent bowl that keeps the testicles isolated from the moisture and also preventing urine from leaking absorbent protector Specifically its configuration allows have a concavity that provides the aforementioned adaptation to the male anatomy

More specifically, the absorbent protector presents an arrangement based on channels arranged so longitudinal in the direction of the core that help provide the desired concave effect to meet the functionality for the It has been designed. In this way the absorbent protector presents a partial bending at the bottom of it that by the collaboration of a transverse elastic thread or band configures a  hollow bag in which the penis is inserted and whose mission is serve for the stagnation of liquids allowing to serve as containment dam before foreseeable leaks.

It is intrinsic characteristic for the functionality of the protector object of the invention its composition a base of a series of layers of different materials in which especially highlights the existence of an absorbent core consisting basically of cellulose pulp fibers to which additionally a super absorbent polymer can be added with the in order to obtain greater absorption and neutralize the smell. Thus, the absorbent core made of pulp and cellulose fibers, it It is laminated at the top with a soft fabric, which will be in contact with the skin to which it can optionally be added skin protective agents and, at the bottom, by a polyethylene sheet that acts as an insulator, both of which can be various color components with prints and / or graphic elements totally or partially and that additionally can incorporate another layer of soft fabric to provide. a touch Soft exterior and be more comfortable for the user.

On the other hand, the invention incorporates advantageously, between the layer that remains in contact with the skin and the absorbent core of cellulose fibers, a layer of material, which can be white or colored, whose fibers have the particularity of exerting a liquid collection effect and diffusion thereof to the absorbent core so that this layer remains dry thus improving dryness on the surface.

Finally an adhesive tape on the part back facilitates the attachment of the absorbent to the underwear of the user.

Each of the different layers that constitute the absorbent protector object of the invention, are adhesives in manufacturing line resulting in a cohesive product whose surface can present embossed drawings by heat welding being topped on its perimeter by a heat seal.

A sheet of polyethylene with treatment Silicone acts as a container and carrying bag and disposed of it once used.

Brief description of the drawings

For a better interpretation of the invention, accompanies the present specification of some drawings in which a form of non-limiting example is illustrated realization of the absorbent protector for slight urine losses in the male object of the invention. In these drawings:

Description of an embodiment of the invention

In view of the commented figures and agree with the numbering adopted, you can see in them a exemplary embodiment of the invention, which consists of a absorbent protector (1) comprising the bonding of a series of layers of different materials of which it stands out especially an absorbent core (2) basically composed of cellulose pulp fibers to which additionally a  super absorbent polymer in order to obtain greater absorption and neutralize the smell, which is laminated on its part upper with a soft fabric (3), which is in contact with the skin to which you can optionally add skin protective agents and, in its lower part, by a sheet of polyethylene (4) that It acts as an insulator, both of which can be colored components various endowed with prints and / or total graphic elements or partially and that additionally it can incorporate another layer of soft fabric (5) to provide a soft outer touch and be more comfortable for the user.

In addition the absorbent protector incorporates advantageously, between the layer that remains in contact with the skin and the cellulose fiber absorbent core, a layer (6) of material, which can be white or colored, whose fibers have the particularity of exerting a liquid collection effect and diffusion thereof to the absorbent core so that this layer remains dry thus improving dryness on the surface.

The fundamental characteristic of the protector absorbent object of the invention, is given by its singular morphology that through a fold (7) and that thanks to the action of an elastic strip (8) configures a concavity or bag (9) that allows its adaptation to the male anatomy.

Thus the absorbent protector comprises an area rear (1st) of larger size folded in the fold zone (7) noted above and a front zone (1b) shorter than insulates moisture testes being both together laterally by the perimeter heat seal zone (10)  which in turn joins the various layers that make up the protector.

In this way, the absorbent protector object of The invention allows the patient to urinate in the concavity (9) by keep the penis inserted in it keeping the moisture testes and also preventing urine from leaking by diffusion of the absorbent protector.

An arrangement based on channels (11) arranged longitudinally in the direction of the core (2) help provide the desired concave effect to meet the functionality for which the protector has been designed absorbent.

Finally an adhesive tape on the part back facilitates the attachment of the absorbent to the underwear of the user, as well as a polyethylene sheet with treatment siliconized as a container and carrying bag and of disposal of the same once used.

Describe sufficiently the nature of the The present invention, as well as how to implement it, is it states that, within its essentiality, it may be taken to the practice in other embodiments that differ in detail from the one indicated by way of example, and which will also reach  the protection that is collected as long as it is not altered, changed or modify its fundamental principle, including therefore variations of materials, shapes and dimensions.
